Digital Ground Segment: Why, How and What Will it Take?
Produced in partnership with World Teleport Association
Today’s explosion of satellite bandwidth and new orbits is driving the digital transformation of satcom from basic bent pipes to processing nodes in the sky. But the transformation can only succeed if the ground segment, still mired in hardware solutions, can adapt to keep up with it – and do it cost-effectively, with near-term benefits as well as long-term ones to ground-based operators. In this panel discussion, teleport operators and technology executives discuss the pressure to change, the strategies being pursued by tech providers and how teleport operators approach the buying decision.
